They are just covering their own asses from being sued if someone spins out on snow tires and blames Subaru for not warning them (the electronic nannies are probably not bulletproof over 50 km/h on ice). If they thought someone might get their tongue burned while sucking on the exhaust pipe, they'd put a warning in the manual for that too.

Agreed. The even go so far as to tell you what containers can and cant go in the cup/bottle holders! make damn sure its a can or cup in that cup holder cause a bottle isnt covered during a crash! lol
